Welcome to Ragged Britches Primitive Doll Store!

The dolls that I make are not washable nor meant to be played with by children. They were made for adult doll collectors to decorate their homes with.

I love dolls and I have been making them since I was 13 years old and needed a present for my little sister Audrey. I did not have any money to buy her a present with so I made her a set of little dolls from my Mom's quilt scraps and a pattern that I found in a McCalls magazine. Audrey loved getting the little dolls as much as I loved making them. That was over 40 years ago, and I am still making dolls today.

I am located just off Western Avenue in Knoxville TN which is about a 45 minute drive from The Great Smokey Mountains.
I do not have a storefront here in Knoxville where you can come and visit me, but I will be at Dollywood's Harvest Festival during the whole month of October so stop by and see me.
